 * I keep getting the error
 * > Your credentials seem to be incorrect. Please check them and try again.
 * The credentials are correct – I doublechecked them, tried 2 existing credentials
   and tried making a new pair as well. No dice. Is this an issue with my AWS account
   or the plugin?

 * Try switching the fields. That should work. I’ve got the plugin to save the credentials
   correctly but it doesn’t look like Amazon is registering the clicks properly.

 * The credentials fields are correct. You may have them in the wrong order because
   of a bad UI decision on my part.

 * I’m having this same problem. I’m putting the “Access Key ID” in the second box
   and the “Secret Access Key” (the one next to the “Access Key ID” that you have
   to click to view) in the first box and it tells me my credentials are incorrect.
   I’ve even tried reversing them and no luck.

 * Yeah, I just entered the keys in the wrong order and tested the combination, 
   and got an error. Then I switched the keys, and….I still go the error….Now what?!

 * +1 for the same problem. I also have tried and re-tried with different combinations.

 * Not having any luck here either. Seems like it WAS working. But now I’m getting
   the error message.

 * Hmm, still have the error, but now wondering if it matters. My tracking ID seems
   to be showing up in the Amazon urls.

 * I am having the same problem, Any chance you can update your plugin? 🙂

 * Solved!
 * With the TSL iframe plugin ([http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tsl-iframe-unfilter/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tsl-iframe-unfilter/))
   you can insert the iframe code produced by Amazon Affiliate Program into posts.
   Of this way, Tiny MCE editor cannot remove the iframe code.
 * * Remember to insert the code as HTML view.
